Pet-Friendly Winery Tours
By Patricia Collier
Lakeridge Winery & Vineyard, Florida's largest premium winery, is pet-friendly! Tours and wine tasting are offered on a regular basis, seven days a week. The winery's hours are Monday - Saturday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m.
Brenda Johnson, administrative assistant at Lakeridge, said the facility is pet-friendly all the time, as long as the animals are kept under control and on a leash. Pets are even OK in the gift shop.
"We get a lot of people traveling with their pets," Johnson said, "and they can't just leave them in the car."
Johnson said the employees at Lakeridge go out and "goo-goo" with the animals and noted they've seen all kinds and all sizes of dogs accompanying their humans.
I'd be negligent if I didn't remind everyone interested in visiting the winery to pack "doodie" bags and always clean up after their companion animal.
Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards is located on Hwy. 27, three miles south of the Florida Turnpike exit 285 and six miles north of Clermont ( 30 minutes from Orlando.)
